Johannes Schindelin 99e37c2560 git p4 test: use 'test_atexit' to kill p4d and the watchdog process
Use 'test_atexit' to run cleanup commands to stop 'p4d' at the end of
the test script or upon interrupt or failure, as it is shorter,
simpler, and more robust than registering such cleanup commands in the
trap on EXIT in the test scripts.

Note that one of the test scripts, 't9801-git-p4-branch.sh', stops and
then re-starts 'p4d' twice in the middle of the script; take care that
the cleanup functions to stop 'p4d' are only registered once.

Note also that 'git p4' tests invoke different functions in the trap
on EXIT ('cleanup') and in the last test before 'test_done'
('kill_p4d').  Register both of these functions with 'test_atexit' for
now, and a a later patch in this series will then clean up the
redundancy.

Luke Diamand 3f360ded54 git-p4: remove ticket expiry test
The git-p4 login ticket expiry test causes unreliable test
runs. Since the handling of ticket expiry in git-p4 is far
from polished anyway, let's remove it for now.

A better way to actually run the test is to create a python
"fake" version of "p4" which returns whatever expiry results
the test requires.

Ideally git-p4 would look at the expiry time before starting
any long operations, and cleanup gracefully if there is not
enough time left. But that's quite hard to do.

Eric Sunshine 079b087c8e t6046/t9833: fix use of "VAR=VAL cmd" with a shell function
Unlike "FOO=bar cmd" one-shot environment variable assignments
which exist only for the invocation of 'cmd', those assigned by
"FOO=bar shell_func" exist within the running shell and continue to
do so until the process exits (or are explicitly unset). It is
unlikely that this behavior was intended by the test author.

In these particular tests, the "FOO=bar shell_func" invocations are
already in subshells, so the assignments don't last too long, don't
appear to harm subsequent commands in the same subshells, and don't
affect other tests in the same scripts, however, the usage is
nevertheless misleading and poor practice, so fix the tests to assign
and export the environment variables in the usual fashion.

Luke Diamand 0ef67acdd7 git-p4: better error reporting when p4 fails
Currently when p4 fails to run, git-p4 just crashes with an obscure
error message.

For example, if the P4 ticket has expired, you get:

  Error: Cannot locate perforce checkout of <path> in client view

This change checks whether git-p4 can talk to the Perforce server when
the first P4 operation is attempted, and tries to print a meaningful
error message if it fails.
